Would anyone out there, preferably in Ontario, have a good original Rochester Carb for a 261 Six for my 58 Parisienne? It seems that the one I have on the car is defective, as it is leaking vacuum very badly around the choke housing so my gas mileage is poor! I don't mind if it would have to be rebuilt, just as it is all there and not showing any damage! The correct carb is lower in height than the one for a 235. Thanks from Bob in Tillsonburg Ontario.

Hi Bob, just get your original one rebuilt at carberator rebuilders company 60 Eugene street Toronto 416 781 8114. I had the carb on my 55 261 rebuilt by them and it came back excellent. He not only rebuilt it he also colourized it to make it look brand new. I think it cost $120.00 Your original carb is probably a numbers matching carb for the year of your car. Al
